A Great Week for PDC Bloggers!
It was a great week for PDC Bloggers! The excitement and efforts of the blogging community to cover the event was extraordinary to say the least. We could barely keep up with your posts. In fact, over this weekend, there are many more posts to organize into the various categories. Several new people have submitted their blogs to be included in the list and we'll be getting their views on Longhorn, Yukon and the excitement of PDC. We'll circle back around to the Panel Q&A and give you the answers you need.
Thank you to all the bloggers for your great coverage of the event. As a community, we all have a resource here for which we can be proud and look back to over the weeks and months to come to recall session notes and technology tidbits and some of the fun we had at PDC.
If you paid close attention to our main page during the event, you noticed the banner change at the top of the main page. We have changed the name of our website to "Professional Developer Community Bloggers" (We'll still affectionately refer to it as PDC Bloggers). This site will live on! Over the next few weeks we will be reorganizing the categories around the technologies introduced at PDC and different resources that you are providing in your blog. The session list and blogger session notes will continue to be available for reference.
Our goal is to attract and send you more readers. We think you are writing some termendous content in your blog and people should see it!
As always, we invite your feedback and suggestions for the website. This is your resource and we hope to maximize its effectiveness for you. If there is anywhere you think we can do a better job, just let us know.

Welcome to PDC Bloggers!
We created this site in hopes of connecting bloggers interested in the Microsoft Professional Developers Conference (PDC) and the technologies associated with the event. We thought it would be cool to have a place to connect bloggers interested in the event: whether or not they are attending the event in Los Angeles.
